What do you all think about demos of the franchises being used?

Well then, they better add more characters that the Japanese are going to like. I’m sure they like the current ones, but most of them are American made. I’m sure throwing in more japanese made characters would get them more excited.

That forum is such garbage. Your idea is a neat marketing idea, kind of takes some of the “spirit” of the game out of it for me. I guess if it was deep in the character profiles it wouldn’t be so bad. Seeing a “BUY IT NOW!!” button is just a big turn off for me.

You misrepresent my idea. I never mentioned anything about BUY IT NOW schemes.

I feel that Kratos is the best character so far. He’s just too good.
To those who have played it, what do you think?
And if you have tips how to play Sly better, that would be nice, too.

According to the booth attendants at Evo, Sly and the Killzone dude is top tier. Kratos felt strong, but definitely not the best, but he was noob friendly. My experience was from the Day 1 build, which they changed by Day 2.


There are already 2 threads about this game on here…why make another one?

Man eff Lightning, it’s all about Snow the Bro :tup:

Snow is just “SERAH SERAH SERAH TOLD US SERAH”. Fang is way kewler.

Well from my experience with the EVO build on day 2, when people don’t know how to block, Heihachi is top tier because he absolutely shits on all mashing regardless of matchup. Beyond that I can’t tell you, no one really wanted to block when I played and I’d just run through everyone. At the very least I could probably say that Heihachi vs Sly is very bad for Sly since he CAN’T block.

Sly is hyper top tier turbo edition in FFA. Unless you have people who gang up on him or are dedicated to watching him instead of fighting other people. He gets free combos off of very easy to lay traps and his run away is too strong. I fear in 1v1 his run away might be too good, hopefully ways to keep him pinned down will be discovered after the game comes out. They made a great change to Sandover Village. Before, you were able to go down into the water and sit there forever, practically unkillable (can’t do supers in the water or air, at least none in the beta) but now if you swim in the water too long it respawns you stunned, which is basically you dying for free.

For everyone who wanted it (or didn’t know that you, indeed, wanted it) …

A clone character who isn’t a clone character at all.

NOW WHODA THUNK OF THAT, EH?

… Evil Cole Is the dumbest idea ever.

You have a HUGE cast of characters to choose from, and you make a clone.

Yes, he is not a clone where it’s the same character but slightly different moves. I mean he is a clone because WE ALREADY HAVE A COLE IN THE GAME!! Why did we need another one, regardless of how different he plays…

Total, TOTAL waste of a slot, and I NEVER say that.

"Personally, I prefer the Fi-air"
So is “Evil Cole McGrath who has Awakened to the Surge of Killing Intent” one of the PAX reveals, or does this count as different reveal?

Sony PAX said they got 2 reveals at there, and Superbot said they got TGS plans.
Metal Gear 25th is this week, so I’d guess Raiden and Sir Dan/Nobody. TGS for Nariko and Sir Dan/Ico DLC/Ryu Hayabusa DLC

I would have preferred if they gone the Zelda/Sheik route with Cole than making Evil Cole his own character. In InFamous one decision would completely alter your karma standing.

One clone character and people flip their shit? Really? Have we already forgot Melee? Hell, even Brawl has more clone characters, even after they made it a point to not have clone characters.

Also, this is just a rumor, can’t confirm it at all, but I heard that Evil Cole was GOING to be a Zelda/Shiek type thing, but Superbot couldn’t come up with a way to make it work that they were happy with, so they just took the moves they had made for him and just made him his own character. Think of it as a moral choice you make at the character select screen I guess.

No flipping here. I think Evil Cole could have been a Zelda/Shiek thing instead of his own character. Kinda like the older DBZ games where the Super Saiyan variants were all their own character when it didn’t have to be that way. Get Kessler on there and we got a full set. :smiley:

I don’t mind it being this way, because I guarantee there would be people who would complain about having to transform. I know tons of people who main Shiek, not Zelda, Shiek, and hate having to start off with a character they hate only to transform as soon as possible and never touch them again.

You can change Zelda into Shiek from character select. I have a friend who plays Shiek and he does that all the time.
